Flocabulary: Parts of Speech Review Rap
It goes...
Noun, verb, adjective, adverb,
Pronoun, preposition, conjunction, interjection.
Uh-uh, uh-uh, pardon me,
We're… uh… running through the p-p-p-p- parts of speech.
Nouns are people, things and places,
Ideas and concepts, so face it.
Your face is a noun, your name is a noun,
I see nouns all around when I roll through the town:
Chris, sidewalk, conversation,
Kitten, popcorn, and some patience,
Unicorn, dreams, shoelace, kings,
Nouns are ideas, people, places and things.
A verb expresses action, like "I see,"
Or a state of being like the verb “to be.”
So we sing, you sang, he sings songs,
We brought her, you should bring him along.
Adjectives? - that's where the magic is.
They modify a noun or a pronoun, wow.
The big bad wolf had hairy paws,
Sharp little teeth and scary claws.

Pronouns replace nouns, a little bit,
Instead of a specific thing, you could use "it,"
Or me or mine or you or we,
Or that or this or hers or she.

Want to quickly modify a verb?
You really need an adverb, ya heard?
You can usually take an adjective and add "-ly",
So we easily won the game last night.
The prepositions in a sentence are the links,
Like on, in, at, upon and against.
Prepositions tell you where and when,
Go up by the rock to see all of your friends.
And, but, or - those are conjunctions,
They link up phrases, that's their function.
Yet they – No! Don't forget interjections, yo!
They interrupt things like Hey! Or Whoa!
